- (answer)Posterior oblique
What position is best to scan the medial breast? - (answer)supine
What position is best to scan the lateral breast? - (answer)posterior oblique
LPO is used to scan which breast? - (answer)the right
RPO is used to scan which breast? - (answer)left
What patient position is helpful during ultrasound that will mimic a mass found on a CC view of
mammography or MRI? - (answer)sitting upright
Why should a patient suspicious for debris within a breast cyst be scanned in multiple positions? -
(answer)to evaluate changes in the debris level with changes in position
What object should be used when evaluating superficial tissues? - (answer)stand off pad
Real time imaging produces a frame rate of - (answer)15 frames/second to avoid lagging

VERIFIED ANSWERS GRADED A+ GUARANTEED 100% PASS
Why is a linear array transducer preferred? - (answer)to avoid beam divergence artifact
Visualization of what structure indicates proper imaging depth of a breast on US? - (answer)pectoralis
muscles
What is an appropriate depth to image the breast on US? - (answer)3-6cm
A rectangular shape FOV eliminates - (answer)divergence artifact
While trapezoidal FOV increases imaging area, it decreases - (answer)lateral resolution in the far field
What does a targeted exam evaluate? - (answer)only a specific area of the breast
What does a survey exam evaluate? - (answer)the entire breast for abnormalities
Breast sonography is NOT what? - (answer)a screening tool for breast cancer!
When would a curvilinear array be needed? - (answer)1. deep structures
2. pathology is too large for the linear FOV
3. imaging large breasts
What is a pitfall of using a curvilinear array? - (answer)measurements may be skewed by beam
divergence
